A meeting of the A Idermatt and Common Councilmen of this Ward took plate at the vestry-room of St. Bride's church yesterday, lin the purpose of investigating the charges contained in a report of some proceedings which took place at the Mansion-house in December last, respecting the present state of Fleet-street. The ward and city officers were summoned to give evidence, and the inhabitants bf Fleet-street were invited to attend, and furnish every information in their power upon the subject. Very few of the latter, however, were present. In the police report referred to, it was stated that Flect.street was the constant resort of thieves and prostitutes, and the daily scene of hundreds of street-robberies, in conse quence of the number of public-houses open at 411 hours of the day and night to harbour the depredators ; and it imputed the continuance of this nuisance to the corrupt influence used by the Common Council of the ward to prevent the proprietors of those houses from being deprived of their licences, From the examination of Mr. Brown, the Marshal, and some of the inferior officers, it appeared, that although Fleet. street, from its population, the number of manufactori e s an d g printing establialiments it contained, the workmen of which were kept up late, its situation l ot a great thoroughfare to and from the theatres, &c., and its propinquity to Fleet-market, was of necessity mote infested by bad characters, and 'required its public-hous es to be kept open to a litter hour than other parts not NiMittily. circumetanced of the city ; yet, regard being had to all these peculiarities of situation, it was rela tively not in a worse state than any other populous parts of the metropolis. It was true that the Watchmen of St. Dim stan's, not being sufficiently well remunerated by the parish, were neither as upright nor as active as they ought to he, and the street-keeper of St. Bride's was a very .inefticient Officer, whom, neverthelese, the inhabitants insisted on retaining in his office ; anti therefore the street was not so well cleared of pros titutes and obstructions as it otherwise might have been ;• but still it was better titan it formerly had been, and the ward SW. thorities were determined t o t ate every means in their power for pushing its improvement still thrther. With res p ect to _the charge publicly made at the Man lion-house, upon the conduct of the Common Council, as regarded the licences of disorderly houses, it seemed to be wholly unfounded, as there was no inst ance sta t e d of a complaint having Jeen made and substantiated aainst a disorderly house, where th e p ropr i etor was not d u ly admonished, and if the irregularity of his house WAR persimted in, finally deprived or his licence. - Several vic tualling-houees, hawever, were tnentioned, ris remeining open to a very Lite hour in the morning, and affording , eirls of the town an opp ortun i ty o f ta king a Klass of gin at the s bar. -After a good deal of investigetion anti discussion, in the course of which some of the inhabitants stated that Meet -street was a very orderly street, whilst others alleged that it wait very much the reverse, it was finally resolved that the statements made at ; the Mansion.honse., and given in the - pollee report, were wholly tab'e and gooundless. P.efore the conclusion of the business, Alderman WAI Tit 2.1 A N ,'till, he thought it right to mention the condition of the ward, as he remembered It, almost thirty years ago. At that time he remembered Airs. 'Waithman was robbed of six guineas at his own door. He wax himself fol lowed and attacked by a gang, one of whom nearly felled him with a bludgeon on his attempting to interfere with him. The Wheelers, and other well-known thieves, paraded the streets openly. Officer* had been in his house watching the motions of the thieves for days. He remembered, on one occasion, having pointed out a gang to a magistrate, when, having oh. served him, they came round -himself and his friend, and abused him. '1 he 'Wheelers, and other adroit and experi enced thieves, were now removed, and it was olivious the state of the streets had greatly improved, There was not one-half of' the depredations committed, although the population had greatly increased. With respect to a certain class of females, it was an evil for which it was difficult to find a remedy. But was this ward in a worse condition than others ? book at CheaPaidet the Hank, and the Poultry ? They were there to be found almost in stands like the hackney-coaches. When he was Mayor, he made considerable efforts to keep. the tho feroughfares clear with respect to carts, waggon*, and coaches This was one of the most serious evils, and was productive of L.she most serious consequences to the retail trade of the city ; and for this the shopkeepers were themselves to blame, in per sisting in keeping the carts and waggons and other v e hi c l es so long at their doors, and in not taking care to elect proper of ficers. Obstructions in the carriage-ways were productive of obstructions on the footpath, and afforded facilities to thieves. LAW INTFLIAGENCE. VICE.CHANCELLOR'S COURT, JAN. 25. MUNOZ v. DE TASTET. In this case a demurrer came on to be argued. It appeared from the statements in the plaintiff's bill, and as was admitted by the defendant's answer, that a partnership was established in the year 1813, between four persons residing at Barcelona, and who were to carry on together the trade of merchants. Two of these persons, whose names were Riva and Darjiz, were to be the ostensible and acting partners ; the other two, Rosa and Boson, advanced a share of the capital. and were to re ceive a proportionate part of the profits of the trade ; but their names were not to be used, nor were they to take any personal share in the business of the partnership. This kind of ar rangement waif said to he common amongst Spanish merchants, anti persons in the situation of Messrs. Ross and 130f013 were called dormant or anonymous partners. By the laws of Spain, it was provided that such partners might at any time during the partnership withdraw from it, and relieve themselves from all responsibility by renouncing the share of capital which they had advanced. At a subsequent period, Messrs. Rosa and Bozon availed themselves of this power, and withdrew ; one of the acting partners was drowned, and another died; so that the partnership was altogether at an end. The affairs of the late firm were then taken up by a public law officer of Spain, for the benefit of the creditors, as is usual there, and M. Munoz, the present plaintiff', was appointed by that officer as his agent to recover property in England belonging to the firm. It was stated that the house at Barcelona shipped a cargo of salted provisions for Cadiz, which upon its arrival at the latter place was sold by Rive, then resident there, and the 'proceeds, amount ing to about 5,0001., tran s mitt e d by hi m to the cortespondenes of his firm, Messrs, de siastet and Co., to he laid out in the purchase of British manufactures, and the present suit was in• sdtuted for the recovery of that sum. To this bill the defendant demurred, alleging that Rosa, although he had withdrawn himself from the first, and re nounced his share in the capital, had nevertheless an interest in the partnership affairs, because he had advanced a further sum to the remaining partners. This, therefore, placed him in the light of a preferable creditor of the firm, and as he was dead, his representatives ought to have been joined as plaintiffs in the present suit. The defendant, therefore, objected to answer the bill in its present form, for want of proper parties. After Counsel had been heard, The VICE.CDANCELLOR said, that from what appeared on the pleadings, the demurrer was s good one.- The claim which the representatives of Ross might have on the defendant was one wholly different from that made by the Spanish agent.— The Court could not in this state of the case decree payment of the s u m which the plaintiff charged to be due, because another plaintiff' might hereafter appear, and this difficulty could only be avoided by the addition of Rosa'arrepresentatives.—The de murrer was therefore allowed. COURT OF KING'S BENCH, JAN. 26. THE KING V. JAMES STAMP SUTTON COOXE. It may be recollected that the defendant In this ease was in. dieted with his brother, Richard Stafford Cooke, James Rus- sell Miles, and Richard Jenkinson, fbr a conspiracy to disquiet Sir George Jcrningham (now Lord Stafford) in the possession of his estates, to cut down Ida timber, and to tomb) , rind defraud his tenants. Richard Stafford Cooke pleaded in abatement that he was Baron Stafford, to which the prosecutor demurred ; the present defendant and Jenkinson pleaded " not guilty ;" and Miles absconded. The record was sent down to trial against James S. S. Cooke and Jenkinso n , at t h e Ol ouceater Spring Assizes in 1824, when the Jury a c qui tte d J en ki nson, and found James S. S. Cooke " guilty of conspiring with his brother,"-- The demurrer on the plea of R. S. Cooke was af terwar d s argued, andjudgment given for the Crown, that ho should answer over to the matter of the charge ; and he subsequently pleaded " not guilty;" which issue has not been tried. Judgment was moved for in Trinity Term, 1824, against James S. S. Cooke, but was postponed from term to term on allegations that the defendant was unable to attend in consequence of illness, until last term, when Mr. CAMPBELL moved on his behalf for a. rule to shew cause why judgment should not be arrested, on the ground that conspiracy • was an offence which could not be committed by one alone, and that Richard Stafford Cooke, for conspiring with whom the defendant was found guilty, might still be brought to trial and acquitted. ' Tao wTox and Mr. It ossiet r. now showed cause aguinst the rule, and cited the cases of " The •King v. Kin nersiey," I Strange, 11i3; " The King v. Nicholls," IS East, 203; and " The King v. Thody," in the Year Book, 12 Henry VIII., as authorities to show that the mere possibility of a joint conspirator being hereafter acquitted,• was no abjection to the passing sentence on a defendant convicted. The jury, when they found the party now before the Court guilty of con spiring with his brother, did not thereby negative his conspiring with others ; and the offence was charged not only as com mitted in neeociation with the individuals named, but also " with divers other persons unknown ;" a conspiracy With others would sustain the finding. If the application were made to the discretion of the Court Mr suspending the judgement, it was of themost ungracious kind, for it would have the effect of compellinu Lord Stafford to try the defendant's brother, in order to obtain judgment against the party already convicted. Mr. CAMPBELL, in support of the role, distinguished the cases cited luau the present, inasmuch as in none of those cases had die absent defentlant submited to process, and put his case in a course of trial. Ile likened it to the 'eau of principel and acceuory, where, though the accessory may, by his own consent, be tried before the principal, no judgment can be passed on him till the principal shall be convicted: Here Richard Staffbril Cooke was, in contemplation of law, an Innocent Ilian he might still be tried and acquitted; and in ease of ilia eequittal, the present conviction must, of necessity, fall, .and an, itog went pronounced on it would be erroneous.
